No sign-up, no watermarks, no time limits. 🔒 Privacy First: All audio processing happens 100% locally on your machine. Your recordings never leave your browser — there is no server and no account.

The extension keeps your 10 most recent recordings so it doesn't fill up your disk — older ones are removed automatically as you record new ones. Download anything you want to keep, and use the "Saved recordings" page to see everything still stored on your computer. Completely free, no ads, no account. Runs entirely on your machine.
